I think its easier to not have prairie madness when your culture has no concept of "wilderness" & your religion thinks the prairies, grasses, & animals that live in it are all benevolent spirits that will help you instead of thinking of the Plains as an empty, barbaric, scary, godless place that's out to kill you unless you "conquer" it

I've seen people mention that settlers might go crazy because of isolationism but that's not it either, Plains ndns also would go out on their own sometimes. In some tribes it was a normal practice to go out to be by yourself for times of mourning or for fasting or other reasons. Sometimes couples would take a small tipi and go alone for a "honeymoon" of sorts after getting married, or sometimes men would go on hunting trips alone.

We were out on the prairie alone sometimes too, Settlers are just pussies

my neighbor killed herself and it's just. ok. cool. i get to be all of the locations of someone who ends their life, the loved one who's mourning and the random stranger that watches people mourn. it's so fucked up. it's so fucked up

Wildlife Photographer Dan King captured these photographs of a Red Fox waking up and enjoying a morning stretch/yawn by the shore of the Beaufort Sea on the north slope of Alaska.

time magazine should kill itself on principle for picking taylor swift as person of the year. not that it matters but the principle of it all demands time magazine editors all kill themselves

the world is incredibly cruel right now and it's so hard to keep moving through the day as if things aren't crumbling around and inside me 24/7. I've just been making baskets made from invasive vines cause I don't know what else to do

no one are about me

just feel incredibly lost and i don't have the mental capacity to even acknowledge what has happened and i can't grieve until i acknowledge it but if i do that i will simply be unraveled and i don't know how many times i can pick up the pieces of myself again. but i will, because i must. but i feel awful and shitty because i haven't even started to grieve because i can't allow it and it feels wrong that i just feel so fucking numb. it feels like an injustice a disgrace to his memory that i don't even allow myself to cry. it's fucked up

one of my best friends fucking died and i don't know what to do anymore. this fucking sucks. and i can't talk to anyone in my community about how fucked up it is because his family doesn't want anyone to know how he went to "preserve his dignity". and i could have prevented it if i answered my phone.
